I found a couple reflectors on Kaidomain which should work:

http://kaidomain.com/S026178-30mm-x-18mm-OP-Aluminum-Reflector

I’d like to try some alternative TIR optics as well, but can’t find any to fit. The Carclo 30mm optics are only 14mm tall. Anyone know where FF sourced the stock optic?

I saw those, but I think the reflector base might short with the MCPCB contacts.

Kapton tape?

Yes, that could work, I’m going to order one of the smooth reflectors and give it a try…

I like this light, but was kind of expecting something with more throw, Maybe I am spoiled with my modified lights…! If I find a reflector I wonder if it would be more throwy than the optic…

Is there a throwier LED light with this head width?

Easiest way would be a different led. Sst-40 is 4mm2.

FWIW I expected more flood and was surprised (but not disappointed) at how much throw it had for the led / optic setup!

Hi AlexGT.
Did the reflector worked with your E01?
How was the bean comparing with the original TIR?
Thanks for your help.

Did you ever try this?

Also, has anyone done any other mods to this light? New LED? Spacer+more emitters?

AlexGT · 2019-09-13T03:20:26.000Z

I got the reflector but haven’t had a chance to install it, will try it over the weekend when I am back home.

Any updates? Fireflies E01 is now available with White Flat 2 emitters, and I’d like to buy one and swap the optic for a reflector for even more throw.

contactcr · 2019-09-26T02:24:43.000Z

I’m curious if they modified the pwm duty cycle via firmware or if it uses a different driver.

AlexGT · 2019-09-26T02:46:58.000Z

Unfortunately the lip diameter of the reflector does not fit inside the light, needs about 1 mm filing and don’t have the time to try and manually do it.

Still looking for another reflector…

This is how it looks

The reflector fits the bezel crown

It doesn’t fit the inside diameter of the light.

Thanks for the update!

Can you please let me know if yours Fireflies E01 can take also non OEM (rewrapped) 21700 batteries?

That should not matter. Protected cells are much longer and those probably won’t fit.

I got the E01 with the Osram 2mm and unfortunately, it turns pure blue on Turbo even with NCR18650B. At top of ramp, it is white light. There is a lot of artifact because I think the optic is not focused for this domeless emitter but the beam is very narrow.

I contacted Jack at Fireflies to see what is going on but no reply for over a week already. I’ve been a frequent Fireflies customer since their Enogear brand and sometimes it takes a month for them to reply

Hmm, they might have moved too quickly to make this and not tested it properly. Sounds like it needs more resistance. Or maybe they can tweak the UI and set Turbo at a lower output, like 145 out of the 150 steps to give it more reliability.

This is the model that you can’t adjust the ramp levels, right?

SKV89 · 2019-11-03T04:28:03.000Z

It’s Anduril. But I will wait for Fireflies’ answer first before I mess with it.
